Any word of wisdom?
I submitted my app before the wknd and my last recommender promised to submit the letter over the wknd. One thing led to another and I ended up submitting, but the recommender didn't. So my status now shows as incomplete. Given that the instruction says to apply only after recommenders have filed in, I wonder how this will be reflected on my candidacy... When I spoke with an admissions person, the person sounded nonchalant about it, but I still wonder....

justdoit123,

I understand your anxiety, but I would take what adcom member said over what any of us would say.

Based on everything I've read and heard, it doesn't matter whether your app goes complete because you hit send or because your final reviewer does. Try not to lose any sleep over it.

Many applications are submitted before the recommendations come in. Don't sweat it, it's a non-issue.

The only thing that is relevant is that they'll only start reviewing your app after all elements are complete. The order doesn't matter.

still no news... been almost 4 weeks now...

Don't worry too much, I didn't hear back until 7 and 1/2 weeks after "under review."

yea mine took a bit over 6 weeks as well so at 4 weeks you might still have another couple weeks to wait still unfortunately

Not yet. Was a bit thrown off by the wierd system. We only do one interview right? But in order to schedule the one interview, we email all 3 people generated by the system? What if they all respond that they are available, then do I just pick the one I like and tell the others to go away? And how long should I wait for a response before generating the 2nd set of 3 alums to try again?

You can search 3 times, so basically you can choose among 9 interviewers. I picked 2 and got one respond in one hour and the other never bothered to respond.

How many weeks have you been waiting since "under review?"

Sorry if this has already been discussed --- trying to keep up with the board. Is anyone in here a J-term applicant who has received an interview invite or already completed an interview?
